Abla'bius

（*)Abla/bios).

1. A physician on whose death there is an epigram by Theosebia in the Greek Anthology (7.559), in which he is considered as inferior only to Hippocrates and Galen.
With respect to his date, it is only known that he must have lived after Galen, that is, some time later than the second century after Christ.

William Smith. A Dictionary of Greek and Roman biography and mythology. London. John Murray: printed by Spottiswoode and Co., New-Street Square and Parliament Street. In the article on Soranus, we find: "at this present time (1848)" and this date seems to reflect the dates of works cited. 1873 - probably the printing date.
